Not a hell of a lot you can do or analyze about this one. The Rays had David Price, the Sox did not. Price totally shut down the Sox offense going 8 innings and letting up 3 hits. Kyle Farnsworth had a perfect 9th and that's all she wrote.
The 3 hits by the Red Sox offense were, an Ellsbury triple, and a 2 singles from Pedroia and Youkilis. We may have been able to get a run if Ellsbury didn't try to score on a A Gon swinging bunt, but in the long run, it didn't matter much.
John Lackey was handed his first loss in seven starts as he gave up 6 hits, 4 runs (3 earned), 3 walks, and struck out 7, over 6 2/3.
At least the Royals are up next.
